Traveler reviews
The best guide
We did this excursion and also those of the Sacred Valley, Lares, Pisac, and the 7 waterfalls. Our guide was René, who made the big difference in all the excursions. Of the 16 countries we know, we can say that he has been the best guide we have had. His knowledge is very extensive, in addition to his life experiences and the way he tells them. Being a local, he was able to share traditions and his knowledge of the Quechua language with us on multiple occasions. His holistic wisdom helped us understand the Inca worldview from a better perspective. He explained plants, astronomy, history, geology, etc. to us—super complete! We regret that he cannot accompany us on our next excursions! He was very patient and friendly with our 9-year-old son and answered all his questions. The transfers were always punctual, and the itineraries were respected in detail. The company was willing at all times to adapt to our requests.
Excellent option for tours from Cusco with expert guides
My partner and I took a half-day tour to the Archaeological Park of Chincheros, Moray, and the Maras Salt Mines, leaving from our accommodation in Cusco. The transfer was simple, practical, and comfortable. Jacob, our guide, was really very kind. He answered all our questions and gave us an informed perspective on the history of the sites and the region in general, as well as a sensitive view of the current reality of Peru. I highly recommend it.
